Description: Who are the Zoroastrians? This is a video over the history of Iran's oldest religion and the journey of one of the smaller ethnoreligious communities of the world, but also one of the most fascinating as an incredibly affluent, successful and influential group of people. Although small and (rapidly) dwindling in number, the Zoroastrian (also known as the Parsi or Irani) community remains fascinating to many, not only in the Persian/Iranian realm, but also around the world due to their interesting diaspora and influential relations.
